Hollins Trophy Champ Series 2024: Canterbury Rink remains closed in 2024, but a determined Committee were not about to deny the skating community of this prestigious event in 2024. SFSC were thrilled to accept the offer of ice time at Liverpool Catholic Club and incredibly thankful too for all the assistance from the Liverpool Catholic Club Ice Skating Club members in the preparation and staging of this event. We would not have been able to go ahead without their tireless and selfless input. Thank You.
Due to the complexities that prevailed in holding the Hollins International event away from our own home rink of Canterbury Olympic Ice Rink, we reluctantly decided not to go ahead, but with high hopes of staging this prestigious event again soon.
Congratulations to all 12 skaters who represented SFSC at this event, with special mention and congratulations to place Holders: Andrea Guo (3rd Junior Women), Franco Wong (1st Basic Novice Boys), Pablo Robertson (2nd Elementary Boys), Sarah Cullen (1st Adult Elite Masters Women)
